Definitions
- the invention improves upon prior devices such as of U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,057,448, 3,093,229, and 3,392,813.
- FIG. 3 is a like view of the platform with the front trackway in the lower or empty pallet returning position
- the shelf frame is caused to have the combinational movement, of both translation and rotation, in the opposite direction, with the shelf frame moving upwardly in the guides 62-63, and also rotating oppositely past horizontal, to come to a pallet forwarding position of alignment with the upper rear trackway, and more particularly of occupying the same plane, extended, as said upper rear trackway, and being in the same forward sloping, reserve pallet forwarding attitude or inclination as has said upper rear trackway, FIG. 1.
